Getting Closer!

We got to actually go in this afternoon and hold E and try and feed him for the very first time! He was one hungry little boy!! I fed him first and then E gave him a bottle with 14 cc in it. I think the bottle was gone in about 14 seconds.
He is completely off of the oxgyen now. He got to move into a regular crib and they put clothes on him. He will finish his last round of medicine tomorrow night and as long as his cultures keep coming back negative he will be on his way to going home very soon!

Yeah! What good news! We loved seeing the pictures of you two holding Eli. Wonderful. And what a good sign that he was so hungry! We can already see some of his Daddy in his little face. Congratulations!

So cute! I think E looks like his daddy. I'm glad he's a good little eater. I think he will be a coffee crisp fan one day just like his daddy.
